Introduction / General power tool safety warningsIntroduction
It is easy to underestimate the vibration load if the
electrical power tool is used regularly in particular
circumstances.
Note: If you wish to make an accurate assessment
of the vibration loads experienced during a particular
period of working, you should also take into account
the intervening periods of time when the device is
switched off or is running but is not actually in use.
This can result in a much lower vibration load over
the whole of the period of working.
General power tool
safety warnings
Read all safety
warnings and all instructions. Fail-
ure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plug
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
e)
When operating a power tool outdo
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

2. Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed
3. Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and / or
battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your fing

the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part
of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
e
dition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
tical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
iden-
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your applica
The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and / or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other con-

Q
Safety advice for
belt sanders
Hold the device by the insulated han-
dle surfaces as the sanding belt could
strike the device’s own mains lead.
Damaging a live wire could result in the metal
parts of the device also becoming live and
could lead to an electric shock.
DANGER OF FIRE FROM FLYING SPARKS!
Sanding metal creates flying sparks. For this
reason, always make sure that nobody is placed
in any danger and that there are no inflammable
materials near the working area.
When undertaking prolonged sanding of wood,
and in particular when working on materials
that give rise to dusts that are hazardous to
health, the sander must be connected to a
suitable external dust extraction device.
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when
working on plastic, paint, varnish etc.
The belt sander is designed for the dry sanding
of large surfaces of wood, plastic, metal and
General power tool safety warnings / Preparing for useGeneral power tool safety warnings
plaster and painted surfaces. The device is to
be used for dry sanding only.
Do not sand materials containing asbestos.
Asbestos is a known carcinogen.
POISONOUS DUSTS!
Sanding paints containing lead, some types of
wood and metal for example may give rise to
hazardous or poisonous dusts and represents a
risk to the health of the person operating the
device and to anyone near the work area.
Wear safety glasses and a dust protection mask!
Securely support the workpiece. Use clamps or
a vice to grip the workpiece firmly. This is much
safer than holding it with your hand.
Never support yourself by placing your hands
near or in front of the device or the workpiece
surface. A slip can result in injury.
If a dangerous situation arises, pull the mains
plug immediately out of the mains socket.
Always work with the mains lead leading
away from the rear of the device.
Avoid contact with the moving sanding belt.
Do not work on moistened materials or damp
surfaces.
Always switch on the device before placing it
against the workpiece. After sanding, lift the device from the workpiece before switching it off.
When working always hold the device securely
with both hands (see Fig. E). Always keep proper footing and balance.
Switch the device off and allow it to come to
a complete standstill before you put it down.
When taking a break from your work, before
carrying out any tasks on the device itself (e.g.
changing the sanding belt) and when you are
not using the device, always pull the mains
plug out of the mains socket.
1. Then release the tensioner for the sanding belt

.
Light sanding pressure is enough:
Apply light sanding pressure only. The weight
of the belt sander alone is adequate to produce
good sanding results. By adopting this approach
you will also prolong the life of your sanding
belts and obtain a smoother workpiece surface.
Sanding and surfaces:
The sanding output and the quality of the surface
finish obtained are determined by the belt speed
and the grade of grit on the sanding belt (see the
section on “Selecting the correct rotational speed
and sanding belt”).
Q
Preparing for use
Q
Tensioning / changing the
sanding belt
DANGER OF INJURY!
Before you carry out any work on the belt sander
always pull the plug out of the mains socket.
Sanding procedure:
With the sander switched on, bring it into con-
tact with the workpiece and move it forward
carefully. Work in parallel and overlapping
widths. Always work in the direction of the grain
to avoid undesirable transverse sanding marks.
After sanding always lift the device from the
workpiece before switching it off.

Q
Vacuum dust extraction
EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL!
If there is an explosive mixture of dust and air you
must use a vacuum device especially intended for
that purpose.
DANGER OF FIRE FROM FLYING SPARKS!
Do not use any form of dust extraction (dust box
5
or vacuum extraction device) if you are sanding metal.
Removal:
Pull off the dust extraction device hose.

Switching on and off
DANGER OF FIRE! There is
the danger of fire when working with electrical devices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a
vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the wood
dust in the dust collection box (or in the vacuum‘s
dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of flying
sparks generated when abrading metals or metal
objects left in wood. This can happen particularly if
the wood dust is mixed with paint residue or other
chemicals and the abraded particles are hot from
prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must empty the
device’s dust collection box and the vacuum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break or stopping
work and always avoid overheating of the abraded
particles and the device.
Wear a dust mask!
Dust collection with dust collection box
Push the dust collection box 5 into the intended
fold on the device side with the adapter connection.
